I wonder how many "Moms" there are out there right now dealing with "Dad" worried about bills, kids and everything else that Moms deal with that wouldnt kill for a couple of days at this hotel just to relax and enjoy life. You know "Free" on the tax-payers.

All american city awards , you got to be kidding me. That's the biggest piece of crap I've ever heard of. Who dreamt that up. Who is in charge of this BS. These city
idiots have fallen for more BS again. I could sell them anything.
Anyone done any research on this
BS?

9th most violent city in the country. That's got to be worth something.

I don't remember the details, but there was something funny about this. Something like they already deposited the donation before getting council to accept it? Or pre-paid the trips? Something like that.

I hope Ireton puts a stop to this "make the deal and ask for approval later" habit our government is in.

Anyone else see the Irony of this All America City press release coming out at the same time as press release for the Crime Task Force meeting tomorrow at 11 a.m., Room 306?

If you can make it tomorrow, go. Beats complaining here.

This "competion" will have about as much creditability as the Metropolitan Magazines " Best of the Shore" awards if crime-ridden Salisbury is named an All-American City.

All America City is just another sign Barrie wanted to put up. Just another way she tried to have people ignore the facts.
